Lent is when we reflect on the passion of Christ

What Adam failed in rhe garden of Eden, Jesus overcome in another
Adam sin on a tree, Jesus died on another
Adam wais ashamed cos of his nakedness, Jesus was stripped naked to bare our shame

Jesus knowing that the soldiers are here to catch Him and put crucify... Jesus didn't run away, but turned to God the Father
   Jesus has a place to pray

   Presence speaks louder
